Compact, tube, jar — and the boxes that lift them off the shelf. Unit and outer, matched, in the registers the prestige aisle expects.
What it is.
i.Cosmetic and skincare outers are where the Huamei floor spends most of its press time. The brief is rarely loud: a soft-touch laminate, a foil wordmark, a spot-UV catch-light. The work is in the fit.
Folding cartons for serum tubes and lipsticks; rigid two-piece for fragrance and palette sets; magnetic flaps where the unboxing is the moment. We register foil to emboss at ±0.1 mm, and the Pantone tolerance on press is ΔE ≤ 2.
Houses on file include Collgene, Kefumei, and a small bench of indie skincare projects. Minimum 1,000 for folding, 300 for rigid. Lead time 14–18 days for cartons, 22–32 days for rigid.

What buyers ask first.
Huamei · FAQWhat's the MOQ for cosmetic packaging?
1,000+ for folding cartons; 300+ for rigid; 200+ for magnetic-flap rigid. Below the floors a rigid box is usually cheaper per unit than a folding carton.
What lead time should I plan for?
14–18 days for folding cartons; 20–32 days for rigid. Surface decoration — hot-foil, emboss, soft-touch, spot-UV — runs inside the production schedule. Sample turnaround 7–10 days.
What colour tolerance do you hold?
Pantone-matched to ΔE ≤ 2 on press, GMG-certified contract proof. Foil-to-emboss registration ±0.1 mm where the brief requires.
